Eat more heme-iron foods
Heme-iron food sources are things like fish, seafood, and meat. Consuming these sources of iron will help you raise your iron levels quickly. It’s essential to get the recommended daily allotment of iron for your age and gender.
And the best way to avoid an iron deficiency is by eating iron-rich foods. If you can, include 2 to 3 servings of iron-rich foods in your daily diet. Some good choices are:
-Lentils and beans
-Green, leafy vegetables like watercress, kale, and spinach
-Iron-fortified bread and cereal
-Meat, including ground beef, pork, chicken, and turkey
-Fish and shellfish, like crab, oysters, clams, scallops, and shrimp
-Dried fruit, like apricots, raisins, and prunes
